Public Transport Details for Mumbai
Mumbai's public transport primarily comprises:
NMMT-Navi Mumbai Municipal Transport operates its Volvo buses from Navi Mumbai to Bandra,Borivali and Dindoshi.
Suburban electric trains: local railway lines
Western Railway, running between Churchgate and Virar. There are plans to extend this service up to Dahanu in near future.
Central Railway, running between Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (Formerly known as Victoria Terminus [V.T.]) and Karjat/Khopoli and Kasara.
Harbour Line, running between Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (Formerly known as Victoria Terminus [V.T.]) and Panvel / Andheri. A new line has extended the Harbour Line from Panvel to Karjat.
Harbour Line, running between Vashi and Thane (via Turbhe)
Public bus service (BEST)This system is run by a government organization Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport, the "B" formerly standing for "Bombay". It has a fleet of red single and double-decker buses. There are air conditioned and low floor buses as well.
The birth of the BEST dates back to 1873, with the setting-up of the Bombay Tramway Company Limited, which was given the licence to operate trams in the city. The Bombay Municipal Corporation (BMC) was given the right to purchase the company after twenty-five years, or after seven years thereafter. In 1874, the Bombay Tramways Act was enacted after the contract was formally signed between the Municipality and the Company to start such a transport system.
On 9 May 1874, the first horse-drawn carriage made its début in the city, plying on the Mumbai's public transport primarily comprises:
Colaba–Pydhone via Crawford Market, and Bori Bunder to Pydhonie via Kalbadevi routes. The initial fare was three annas (15 paise), and no tickets were issued. As the service became increasingly popular, the fare was reduced to two annas (10 paise). Later that year, tickets were issued for the first time, to curb the increasing ticketless travel.
From 1926 the BEST started operating motor buses.
In 1947, a week prior to India gaining independence, the BEST became an Undertaking of the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai. It now operates as an autonomous body.
The bus transport service covers the entire city and also extends its operations outside city limits into neighbouring Navi Mumbai, Thane and Mira-Bhayandar. In addition to buses, it also operates a ferry service in the northern reaches of the city. The electricity division of the organisation is also one of the few electricity departments in India to garner an annual net profit.
As of 2011, the BEST runs a total of 4,680 buses,ferrying 4.8 million passengers over 365 routes, and has a workforce strength of 38,000, which includes 22,000 bus drivers and conductors (this comes to an average of 11.2 employees per bus). Single decker buses make up the bulk of the fleet, followed by the double-decker buses and air-conditioned buses, which ply on select routes.
Types of RoutesOrdinary:Ordinary routes are the most common, with buses on these routes stopping at all stops. Buses plying on these routes are identified by a white route number on a black background.
Limited Buses: on these routes stop only at important places and skip all the minor stops in between on high volume routes. They used to have a marginally higher fare and are identified by the route number in red on a white background. In 2008, the fares of Limited and ordinary buses were brought at the same level. The route number ends with LTD.
Special: These buses ply on select routes covering railway terminuses and the central business districts. These routes have a fare marginally higher than the 'Limited' routes and are identified by the route number in white on a red background.
Express/Corridor: These buses service long distance intra-city routes, and have fares that are the same as the Special routes, but with lesser number of stops. They have route numbers indicated in red on a yellow background. These buses do not skip the flyovers, like other buses.
Air-conditioned: These buses fares a little over four times the fare of an 'Ordinary' route covering the same distance. These buses have route numbers starting with A.
Ac/Super: These buses ply on the new BRTS routes.

The news about the death of Osama Bin Laden at the hands of special U.S. military teams is the best news that we have had relating to the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001.
The U.S. vowed that it would hunt him down and bring him to justice dead or alive, and while it took nearly 10 years to accomplish finding him and killing him,it was well worth the wait.
While this will not bring back the nearly 3,000 innocent Americans who died on that terrible day, at least it is sending a message out that our country will never allow terrorists to escape unpunished for their horrific crimes. President Obama is to be commended for executing this military operation which eliminated this mass murdering fiend.
Our nation and its citizens still need to be vigilant-there is no doubt that Al Qaeda will attempt to strike back to avenge their leader's death.
We will be ready for them. We owe all of our brave servicemen and women a deep debt of thanks for all that they are doing ,and a special thanks to those brave soldiers who were involved in the killing of Bin Laden.
Sincerely John Amato

What does the word "WELL" make you think about?
Maybe it is a place to retrieve water, like in the photo above. Or, maybe you think more about a person being wished well, as my title expresses.
The Dictionary defines well-being as "a good or satisfactory condition of existence, a state characterized by health, happiness, prosperity, and welfare." Some other synonyms include "comfort, ease, and good."
Well-being that involves being well is something we all most likely desire for our lives and the lives of those we care about. Living lives full of love, comfort, happiness, good health, and success are truly great blessings. I've experienced all of these things throughout my life in varying degrees and in varying seasons.
And, also, at times in my life some of these things have been harder to find. Sometimes I don't realize all I've had until some of it is taken away. I've experienced personally or been close to others who have experienced job loss, broken relationships, declining health issues, disappointments, failures, or the loss of someone they loved dearly. Life has its share of ups and downs, triumphs and set-backs, gains and losses.
And, although I most certainly wish each one of you well…there is a deeper kind of "well" I wish for you, too.
There is a story in the Bible about Jesus and His interaction with a Samaritan Woman at a well. He was tired from his journey and He asked this woman for a drink. (John 4:7) There is something about this story that draws me in, just as water is drawn out of a well. It invites me to look down and peer into the water reflecting at the bottom.
It says in John 4:4 (NIV) that Jesus "had to go through Samaria." I wonder why? He was traveling from Judea to Galilee, and apparently it wasn't common to go through Samaria.
According to Wayne Jackson from The Christian Courier:
"…since Samaria lies between Judea and Galilee, passing through Samaria was not the only route between the two provinces—in fact, it was not the most common one.
Because of Jewish hostilities toward the Samaritan people (which we will discuss later), the Hebrews frequently would travel to the east when they had leisure time (see Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews20.6.1, regarding travel at feast times), cross over the Jordan, and thus skirt the Samaritan territory. Samaria was considered as not belonging to the Holy Land, a strip of "foreign country" separating Judea from Galilee (Edersheim 1957, 12). Such a detour would take longer than the normal three days of travel."
It was frowned upon for Jews to interact with Samaritans and it says so in John 4:9 ("For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.") But, it also was taboo for men to be speaking with women in public places back then.
"The Jewish attitude toward women was less than ideal. While the Old Testament afforded great dignity to womanhood (cf. Prov. 31:10ff), the Hebrews over the years had imbibed some of the attitudes of paganism.
A Hebrew man did not talk with women in the street—not even with his mother, sister, daughter or wife! (cf. Lightfoot 1979, 286-287)."
Jackson, Wayne. "Jesus and the Samaritan Woman." ChristianCourier.com. Access date: November 12, 2017. https://www.christiancourier.com/articles/282-jesus-and-the-samaritan-woman
Jesus wasn't afraid to break cultural norms/traditions to engage with others. What amazes me is that after Jesus's conversation with this woman, she not only left her water jar at the well, but she seemed eager to return to her town and tell people the following,
"Come and see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?" (John 4:29).
According to John 4:18, she had been married five times and was currently in a relationship with a different man. She had never shared all these details with Jesus, yet He revealed them to her. She probably was embarrassed and/or felt guilty about this part of her life, yet it seems to me that she was drawn to Jesus and what He offered her at the well. What was it about Him that drew her to Him, despite being "caught" and exposed?
I don't know about you but I am not always eager to share my own sins and mess-ups with others, let alone my whole town. I don't readily proclaim to my neighborhood, "Come and see everything I've ever done!" Sure, I might share the good…but the bad, the embarrassing, the big mistakes…I only share those things with people I trust and feel completely safe with. So it seems to me that for her to leave her water jar and share this with her town, there must have been something else more powerful driving her to do so. I would like to think that although her mistakes had been exposed, she was overwhelmed with the loving-kindness and grace Jesus offered her. Surely she didn't feel condemnation for why would she have been so eager to expose all her "dirty laundry" to the town? Back then she could have been stoned to death for this.
Romans 8:1-2 says, "Therefore, there is now no condemnation in Christ Jesus because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death."
Even though her sins and mistakes were exposed, it appears she wanted something more. She wanted to be spiritually well and she found it at a literal well.
Jesus told her earlier (John 4:13-14) "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again. But, whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life"
I love that phrase.
Have you ever had tears "well up" in your eyes until they spilled out and ran down your cheeks? My mom had this happen all the time. She was frequent "cry-er" and one of the finest. So very often the tears that fell from her eyes were tears of joy, tears of love. Sure, they fell at sad times, but they also fell abundantly at joyous times, times of reunions and happy moments. When tears fell, we knew how deeply we were loved.
Revelation 21:4 says regarding heaven, 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
I've often heard others say, "There will be no more tears" in heaven. My mom asked me once "How can there be 'no more tears' in heaven?" So many of her tears were tears of joy and love so she didn't like the thought of not being able to let the tears fall during those joyous times. Certainly it says there will be "no more sorrow or mourning or death or pain" but there very well may be tears of joy and love, welling up to overflowing when we see one another again. Oh, what an amazing day that will be!
Isaiah 58:11 says, "The LORD will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden–like a spring whose waters never fail."
Jesus wants us to be spiritually WELL. He invites us to bring all our mistakes, our sins, our disappointments, our struggles to Him. He wants to give each one of us "living water" and a soul "welling up to eternal life." Only in Him can we find this kind of soul-nourishment and life-giving refreshment that will last eternally.
3 John 1:2, also written by John, one of Jesus closest disciples says, "Dear friend, I pray that you enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well."
Jesus wants this for each one of us.
Oh, how I wish this for you too!
I wish you WELL.

Fhealthcare.govIt is awful; it couldn't have been worse. The technology on the site has failed multiple times. Representatives have rarely been well-informed. To this moment, there is still no satisfaction for the issues I have had. I have spent hours on the phone with them. They claim that they will escalate the situation and get a resolution. I still have not had any results. There have been serious problems. When I see commercials about how great and easy it is, I am livid. If I could avoid it, I would not use them again.- Barb K.

While searching for posts on #healthliteracy on Twitter, I found several feeds that tweeted or re-tweeted about an online "health literacy quiz" from a company called HealthEd. Below is the quiz:
While this quiz appears to be well-researched and informative, is it from an organization committed to providing reliable health information on the Web? Looking at HealthEd's website, none of the people listed on its "Leadership" page have an M.D. or medical Ph.D. degree (at the time of this writing).
Information literacy includes having the skills to evaluate online information to determine its accuracy, relevance, source, etc. One way to do this is to apply the C.R.A.A.P. Test: try to determine the information's:
- Currency: timeliness of the information.
- Relevance: importance of the information for your needs.
- Authority: source of the information.
- Accuracy: reliability, truthfulness, and correctness of the informational content.
- Purpose: reason the information exists.
One way to sort through the tsunami of health information is to look for the HONcode logo (at left). The Health on the Net Foundation "was founded to encourage the dissemination of quality health information for patients and professionals and the general public, and to facilitate access to the latest and most relevant medical data through the use of the internet. The HONcode certification is an ethical standard aimed at offering quality health information. It demonstrates the intent of a website to publish transparent information. The transparency of the website will improve the usefulness and objectivity of the information and the publishment of correct data."
Other sites that can provide reliable health information include MedlinePlus, major academic medical institutions, and other trusted sources.

Effort Value
|This article is missing an image. Please help the Azurilland Wiki by adding one.
Effort Value Points (or EVs) are unseen statistics that can increase your Pokémon's stats. The system was introduced in the third generation (Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald). EVs are obtained by fighting other Pokémon. Depending on the defeated Pokémon, different EVs will be obtained. For example, Sneasel will provide speed EVs, while Chansey will give HP EVs. For every four EVs obtained in one stat, that stat will be increased by one extra point at level 100. Simply put, if your Gyarados were to obtain four Attack EVs, at its next level up its Attack stat would get +4 instead of +3, if it gets eight EVs it will be +5 and so on. While this is very useful, there is a catch. After accumulating 510 EVs, the game will stop tallying them and EV training becomes useless for that Pokémon. So that means that after you gain all of your EVs, the total increase in stats for you Pokémon will be +127. There is also a cap on the amount of EVs you can gain in one stat. After your Pokémon has gained 255 EVs on a stat (such as Attack), the game will stop tallying EVs for that stat. This means that the said stat will cap off with +63. This doesn't mean that it has to stop gaining EVs, it just means that once it hits that mark, it'll have to get EVs in another stat, such as Defense or Special Attack.
Methods of Making the Process Easier[edit | edit source]
EV training can become a very tedious process. Fortunately, there are items and effects that can make this whole process go by much more quickly.
- Macho Brace. This doubles the amount of EVs gained in a battle. For example, if you defeated a Machoke, instead of getting 2 atk Evs, you would get 4 atk EVs.
- "Power" Items (Generation IV and later). These items will only work for one stat and will reduce the pokémon's speed while held. They increase the described stat by four. These are Power Weight (HP), Power Bracer (ATK), Power Belt (DEF), Power Lens (SPATK), Power Band (SPDEF) and Power Anklet (SPD). If your pokémon was holding a Power Bracer (ATK) and it killed a Machoke, instead of 2 ATK EVs, you would get 2 + 4 = 6 ATK EVs; If your pokémon was holding a Power Belt and it killed a Machoke, besides getting the 2 EVs on attack, you would also get 4 EVs on Defense.
- PokeRus. This is a super rare benefical virus (made less and less rare in newer versions) that can be obtained in battles against wild Pokémon. It has the same effect as the Macho Brace, but will wear off if the infected Pokémon is in your party when the DS internal clock reached midnight. However, the virus can be kept indefinitely if the Pokémon is kept in the Box. Can be passed along party Pokémon by battling; it will pass to any pokémon situated next to the infected Pokémon after a battle. NOTE: It might not pass after any battle, as it may pass, it is random. How it works: Imagine your pokémon is holding a Power Bracer and defeats a wild Machoke; it would get (2 + 4)*2 = 12 ATK EVs. Another example: Your pokémon is holding a Power Belt and it defeats a Wild Machoke; you will get 2*2 = 4 ATK Evs and 4 DEF EVs.
- HP UP, Protein, Iron, Calcium, Zinc and Carbos. These add 10 EVs to their respective stat until a cap of 100 EVs. Very practical as they cost 1 BP.
Super Training (Gen VI only)[edit | edit source]
Super Training allows you to train your Pokémon's EVs as well as see how close they are to capping overall or in a specific stat without even being in battle. The button to access the Super Training menu is found on the GUI on the bottom screen in ORAS and XY, next to the PSS and Pokémon Amie panels. You can train EVs via Super Training by doing one of the following from the main screen;
- Punching Bags. You can get Punching Bags as you do minigames from the Super Training UI. They come in three sizes (Small, Medium, Large) and each size gives varying amounts of points towards an EV value. For instance, a smaller punching bag will give less towards a stat than a large punching bag, etc.
- Minigames. There are "training regimens" inside the Super Training interface. There are 6 different categories; one for each stat. Typically, these minigames fall along the lines of shooting pellets towards a large balloon while avoiding pellets shot back at you in return. Completing minigames unlocks more and more regimens as well as rewards the player with Punching Bags to further increase the rate of EV gain.

In The Power of the Cross, Tony Evans explored how the cross is the centerpiece of everything in a person's life and how we need to understand how much God loves us. It's important to have a relationship with Christ and not just a religion. Tony Evans reminded readers that we have to carry our own cross like Luke 14:27 instructs us to do. The book begins by looking at who Christ is and His true identity. He also shared how powerful the blood and sacrifice Jesus dying on the cross for our countless sins was. Next, he explored the power of the cross and how we was able to be delivered from the gates of Hell and how we can live in victory. Tony Evans also revealed how we can have stability no matter what is going on around us. This chapter was so eye opening when you take into consideration that this was written in 2015 way before the world has begun to crumble even more.
I would recommend this life changing book to anyone who is wondering about Jesus and His power and they are desperately seeking a deeper relationship with Him. This book would be especially helpful to a new believer. In reading this book, I was reminded that I'm a part of Jesus' covenant and I learned about the passage found in Hebrews 12. This one discussed how God will shake the Earth and Heaven with His voice and when does this, He is speaking. This showed me the importance of listening to His voice and doing His will for my life and making sure I'm drawing closer to Him through whatever may be happening. This taught me that I must make sure my foundation is secure in Christ. This is a very timely reading and it will benefit readers in learning about the power of the cross and who our identity is in Christ.

Post subject: Recipe File: Honey Pecan Pralines
Pralines are nuts in candy form and this recipe makes crunchy toasted honey pralines that are excellent for topping desserts or blending into ice cream. This recipe only takes a few minutes to make and can be easily modified to use your favorite nuts.
I adapted this recipe from
Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home
. I found her recipe resulted in pralines that were more like candy with nuts than candied nuts, so I increased the quantity of chopped nuts to 1-1/2 cup (from 1 cup). If you'd like more candy than nuts, then just reduce the nuts to 1 cup.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and set a rack in the middle position.
The ingredients you'll need are 2 tablespoons (42 g) honey, 2 tablespoons (28 g) light brown sugar, 1-1/2 cups (170 g) chopped pecans, 1 tablespoon (14 g) melted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 g) table salt (not shown in photograph).
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. When I make this at home, I don't bother measuring all the ingredients into separate bowls (as I've done here for the step-by-step photographs). It's faster to just weigh all the ingredients than to attempt to measure with dry and fluid measuring cups. I just put a bowl on a scale and measure out pecans and butter directly into it. If the butter needs to be melted, I microwave the pecans with butter for a few seconds until the pecans warm up and melt the butter after stirring. Then I put the bowl back on the scale and add the sugar, honey, and salt according to the reading on the scale. (I actually measure the salt separately since my main kitchen scale only has 1 g precision. Using a 1/4 teaspoon is faster than pulling out the precision scale.)
Stir the ingredients until well coated.
Place a sheet of parchment paper on a half sheet pan. (Aluminum foil also works, but don't use wax paper - the wax will melt and become part of the pralines. The result will still be edible, but not desirable.) Scoop the sugar, honey, and nuts mixture onto the parchment paper and spread out into a single layer. Place the sheet pan into the preheated oven and let it bake for 8 minutes.
After the eight minutes have elapsed, remove the sheet pan. The sugar and honey mixture should be melted and bubbling forming a giant puddle of hot, sticky pecan and caramel.
Using a heat resistant spatula, stir the candied nuts to evenly coat the nuts in the hot sugar syrup and spread it out again. Put the pan back in the oven for three more minutes, then stir it again. Place the pan back in the oven.
After another three minutes, remove the pan. The pralines will have taken on a darker, richer color and will smell of candy and toasted nuts.
Using your heat resistant spatula, spread the nuts out as much as possible and allow it to cool completely.
Once the pralines are cooled, pull the parchment paper together to form the pralines into a mound and to break up the larger chunks. Then break the individual pieces of pralines into smaller pieces. You can use a tool for this like a spoon or knife, but I find it easiest (and cleanest) to just use my hands.
Pralines are best eaten immediately or blended into just made ice cream, but can be kept without much deterioration by freezing them in an airtight container. Leaving them out will allow the sugar mixture to absorb water and become soft and sticky again.

I miss seeing your blog, I love your methodical ways and will be making these perhaps today, and saving some for pumpkin pancakes, then will get out that ice cream sleeve that has been residing in my freezer for 2 years and never used to make the ice cream, thank you so much Michael.

wonderful method for candied pecans. I always end up with chunks of candy rather than separate nuts.

Rami Malek grew up in Los Angeles and worked in restaurants prior to becoming an award-winning actor. Tanya Rad found out over Golden Globes weekend that the actor, who nabbed the award for Best Actor, had an inspirational drive prior to making it big.
Tanya explained to Ryan Seacrest on-air that while talking to Rami's "groomer," the 37-year-old used to work at a restaurant and would put his headshot in customer's food bag just in case they worked in the industry.
One day, a casting agent came across the headshot and actually called the actor, who ended up talking his way into landing his first role — a moment on Gilmore Girls!
For those die-hard Rami and GG fans, the hunk was on season 4 episode 11 and was part of Lane's bible study group!

Summer has always been the time of year for cold, creamy treats. But it wasn't until 1984 that Ronald Reagan declared July "National Ice Cream Month."
More specifically, the third Sunday of the month (which happens to be July 17th this year) is National Ice Cream Day. Don't hesitate to put the date on your calendar — but don't feel pressured to wait until the 17th, either.
Indulge all month at your preferred Hamptons ice cream location. Maybe homemade flavors at Bridgehampton Candy Kitchen are your thing. Perhaps Sag Harbor's Ice Cream Club or Big Olaf does it for you. Whatever your choice, remember that it's you duty to honor ice cream devotees and innovators everywhere this month. With that said, we'll leave you with a few fun facts about the history of the frozen delicacy. [expand]
Did you know?...
* Each American consumes a yearly average of 23.2 quarts of ice cream, ice milk, sherbet, ices and other commercially produced frozen dairy products.
* The Northern Central states have the highest per capita consumption of ice cream at 41.7 quarts.
* More ice cream is sold on Sunday than any other day of the week.
* Ice cream and related frozen desserts are consumed by more than 90 percent of households in the United States. (Source: Mintel)
* Ice cream consumption is highest during July and August.
* The most popular flavor of ice cream in the United States is vanilla (27.8%), followed by chocolate (14.3%), strawberry (3.3%), chocolate chip (3.3%) and butter pecan (2.8%). (Source: The NPD Group's National Eating Trends In-Home Database)
* Children ages two through 12, and adults age 45 plus, eat the most ice cream per person.
The average number of licks to polish off a single scoop ice cream cone is approximately 50.
The History of Ice Cream and the Cone:
The true origin of ice cream is unknown, however reports of frozen desserts have been reported as far back as the second century B.C.
* The first official account of ice cream in America was recorded in 1700 from a letter written by a guest of Maryland Governor William Bladen.
* In 1812, Dolley Madison served a magnificent strawberry ice cream creation at President Madison's second inaugural banquet at the White House.
* The first ice cream cone was produced in 1896 by Italo Marchiony. Marchinoy, who emigrated from Italy in the late 1800's, invented his ice cream cone in New York City. Around the same time a similar creation, the cornucopia, was independently introduced at the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair.
* Stephen Sullivan of Sullivan, Missouri was one of the first independent operators in the ice cream cone business. In 1906, Sullivan served ice cream cones at the Modern Woodmen of America Frisco Log Rolling in Sullivan, Missouri.

Internet users in Kuwait are set to benefit from major price cuts.
Salem Al-Othainah, Kuwait's minister of communications and acting minister of social affairs and labour, this week issued a decision that obliges internet providers to slash subscription fees for domestic connections by at least 40%, according to a report from Kuwait Times.
It is the second time that Al-Othainah has called for price cuts for internet services.
The report added that Al-Othainah's decision will prevent the bandwidth cap policy for Wi-Fi services.
The maximum subscription fee for domestic internet services, after the decision, were set as KD 48 for one MB/sec, KD 77 two MB/s, KD 104 for three MB/s, KD 130 for four MB/s, KD 148 for five MB/s, KD 156 for six MB/s, KD 183 for seven MB/s and KD 200 for eight MB/s, the report added.
The timeframe for the implementation of the decision was not specified.

Hi all.
I hope someone can advise whether such a script exists for what am wanting to do. From time to time, I need to send password information or login details and password information to some users.
At the moment, am doing it via email with a subject named FYI and the body of the email basically just contain the login and the password or in some case, just the password.
What am wanting to know is whether I can put these information into a HTML file which contains an obfuscated Javascript with a button that a user will click that will prompt for his login information and then will display the password.
In its simplest form, I guess I am looking for a Javascript that will obfuscate a HTML file that contains the password. Anyway, hopefully someone understand what am looking for.
I found some website that offers such service as obfuscating a HTML file but am hoping it can be done via a Javascript so it is at least "portable" and I do not have to be online.
Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Intel Third-Geneartion Ivy Bridge Core Series
Performance results don't lie. Ivy Bridge processors have exhibited significantly faster speeds than their planar-gate predecessors. Their Tri-Gate technology incorporates 3-D transistors that maximize current flow when in the on state and consume close to zero when off.
Also significant, Ivy Bridge is the first Intel processor series with direct support for DirectX 11, Microsoft's latest graphics and multimedia APIs. On this score, Intel archrival AMD is no longer the only game in town. And as Intel promised, Ivy Bridge processors use the same sockets as Sandy Bridge parts.

When Guiding Eyes for the Blind dropped off Saki at Bridget Kennerley's house, they made sure to tell her what to expect from the young golden retriever on that first night. What they couldn't tell her, however, was how different her life would be every night after.
"It was interesting at first, especially before she was trained," said Bridget. "I would have to hold her up and sprint downstairs before she had an accident at three in the morning."
After attending foundation training classes every week for the first few months, Bridget and Saki now attend the next level of classes every other week. This past December Saki was one of the youngest dogs in the region to become a jacketed guide dog, meaning Bridget can now take Saki with her into public buildings, restaurants, church and even out on the family boat.
"We want to expose her to every possible situation a blind person could take her into," said Anne Kennerley, Bridget's mother.
The Kennerleys' ultimate goal is to have Saki get through the formal training and pass the test this August to become an official guide dog for people with visual disabilities. Anne said the reason they chose to work with Guiding Eyes for the Blind was that the non-profit organization gives the guide dogs up for free to those in need.
"It's amazing how many people are involved in this," Bridget said. "We met a referee at an ice hockey game, a couple at the ski lodge, a lady on the metro … it's an experience you can bond over with people from all over the area."
RUDY FERNANDEZ doesn't consider himself much of a pet lover.
"Except for Kristy. She's a good dog," he said, smiling fondly in the bluetick coonhound's direction. After giving in to his children's requests for a dog, he decided to adopt one from a rescue shelter. The moment he saw Kristy, he decided she was the right one.
"She's very easy-going and doesn't require a lot of attention. She loves to stretch out in the sun and probably sleeps about 18 hours of the day," he said, laughing.
Rudy said she'll often disappear upstairs with his son Jonathan who plays with her in his room, inventing games and adventures.
Jonathan piped in, "I like spending time with her. But she's got a sad look in her eyes."
Kristy was found in West Virginia, where she had a litter of puppies, and was rescued from owners who had mistreated her. Rudy said she still shakes a lot and is easily startled and scared by little things.
Her past hasn't changed her hound nature though and even now if the Fernandezs leave the door open she takes off, sniffing out a path until the family organizes a neighborhood search to find her. No matter how lost she gets, however, they always manage to bring her safely back home.
WHEN HER DAUGHTER LEFT FOR COLLEGE, Gail Glover began sending her a picture of their cat Stevie every day. Inspired, her son Owen Joyce began tweeting a daily picture of the cat under the trend '#dailycatpic.'
"She's so cute you can put a picture on twitter and get a minimum of three favorites," Joyce said, half-joking and half-serious.
Internet celebrity aside, Stevie is a constant source of entertainment for the family, who adopted her from a friend in May 2011. All she carried with her was her name, the result of a case of mistaken gender, just as her mother's—Dave—and grandmother's—Johnny—had been. Although she was just a kitten then, she learned quickly.
"At first she didn't know how to go to the bathroom in the litterbox, but just like the expression 'copy-cat,' you only have to show her what to do and she copies it," Glover said.
Joyce said he finds Stevie's nature entertaining, both for her and himself. If they shine a laser pointer at a wall, she breaks into a gallop as if she was a horse, chasing after the light all around the house and even into walls.
"She's a funny little thing and makes us all laugh," Glover said. "She just does goofy stuff all the time."

Innovating 'innovation at scale'
Marla Capozzi is a senior expert in McKinsey's Boston office and Ari Kellen is a director in McKinsey's New Jersey office.
Game-changing innovation is a beautiful thing. Disruptive products and services are unleashed. New markets are created. Customers smile, employees cheer and shareholders win. What's not to like?
The problem is that large companies find game-changing innovation staggeringly difficult to achieve. Recently we analyzed the performance of 750 large companies in the 10 years to 2008. Apple was the only incumbent in this period to grow by creating new markets repeatedly through disruptive innovation. ("The Perils of Best Practice: should you emulate Apple?" McKinsey Quarterly, September 2012)
Our analysis suggests that big companies should focus instead on what we call 'innovation at scale' – that is, achieving repeatable and sustainable organic growth from new products, services and business models that build on the core business. This approach, too, is challenging: just 6 percent of the companies we analyzed managed to innovate at scale consistently through the period. But innovation at scale seems to be within reach of many more companies than might succeed in creating brand new markets.
What does it take to innovate at scale? The first element is robust strategy. In our work with clients, we find that companies that innovate at scale have a deep understanding of their assets, capabilities and what makes them successful. They understand at a granular level where growth came from in the past and where it is likely to come from in future. Aspiring to double revenues by 2020 may be a terrific stretch goal, but it is not a strategy.
Robust strategy is important because it creates the framing and focus needed to drive greater innovation. Ask people simply to "innovate" and the likely response is a mishmash of ideas. Focus, which can come in the form of simple guard rails, provides the crucial guidance on what really matters to the company's future success and what types of innovation are required. These factors allow people to experiment and take more risks.
The second element needed for innovation at scale is careful attention to organization. While there is no set formula – organization must follow strategy, not be the starting point – our work with innovative companies points to a few areas on which to focus:
- Innovation cannot be a side show. Companies that integrate innovation into strategic planning, budgeting and resource allocation are six times more likely to achieve desired financial targets. Leadership, especially in the c-suite, is closely correlated with innovation outcomes.
- Stay 'open' longer. Many companies now use open innovation principles to harvest ideas from consumers, employees and other stakeholders. But once the idea portfolio is set, the process is often surprisingly insular and linear. War gaming innovations early, and testing across multiple economic scenarios, can provide a market view and help to further refine ideas.
- Structure to execute. It is hard to find a clear correlation between organizational design – that is, use of innovation centers, incubators and labs – and successful innovation at scale. That said, these structures can be helpful ways to bring people together, allocate resources and track progress.
- Hand-pick talent. Innovation projects staffed by volunteers tend to underperform those run by people selected for the role. This shouldn't disqualify people who raise their hands for the right reasons (e.g., passionate about the idea, hunger to contribute) but it is a reminder that raw enthusiasm is no substitute for the right expertise and capabilities.
Of course, there remains a lot we don't know about successful, repeatable innovation at scale. How do we build employee capabilities in experimentation, testing and prototyping? How do we apply a strengths-based approach to innovation, understanding that successful teams and networks require a range of different innovation aptitudes? How do we balance alignment with strategic priorities against openness to orthogonal ideas? What we do know is that innovating innovation at scale is a critical management challenge for every big company that cares about sustainable growth.
Do you have ideas or case studies to share on how to make innovation an every-where, all-the-time capability? Please enter the Innovating Innovation Challenge, the first leg of the Harvard Business Review/McKinsey M-Prize for Management Innovation.
Maria and Ari,
your inputs are inspiring.
I encourage you to check on Dimension 12 our hack where we mention your alignment questioning (cf 18 Black Holes : beyond boundaries of innovation. Think and explore multi-dimensions design).
Your bets are very facts and results based, so a safe way to innovation outputs.
However I enjoy when Mc Kinsey is also challenging about cloning of existing Best Practices and recipes for average results not being the best way to breakthrough.
And pushing bold tactics with so called "convexity", that is to say a reward for orthogonal ideas.
We are now lightly but certainly entangled....whatever you ay bring to the table will be adding to our thinking.Co-operative intelligence at work...Thanks a lot.

As with most discussions about innovation, the assumption seems to be that innovation is mono-directional, dealing primarily with new products, new markets, new procedures, new, new, new, always looking forward.
Here's a story as an example of what that can mean: a guy has a high performance boat, he's obsessed with power and engines. Not sissified with current performance he researches all power options and settles on a revolutionary and proven new engine, which he promptly purchases and has installed. On his first and all subsequent sea trials, the boat still under performs. In desperation he consults an old boat repair specialists and has the answer in minutes. The guy points out that the owner has been so abscessed with innovative power sources that he had neglected the mundane;maintenance! The old guy explained that the boat had so many barnacles on the bottom creating drag, that no innovative engine could overcome this drag.
As we have seen time after time in our practice, when the CEO has the courage to look backwards and just stop doing things that no longer make sense, removing the cultural and political barnacles so to speak, then even modest innovation can have huge impacts on earnings.
One client tried the traditional approach for one year assigning a set reduction percentage to each officer and came up with $24 million in expense reductions, less than one percent.. Not nearly what they needed, then they took a different approach and turned to the employees and made sure management could not intervene until the anonymous employee suggestions were vetted, by outsiders. The result, in ten weeks employees successfully identified $300 million in sustainable SG&A reductions, a $200 million reduction in already approved capital, a one-time inventory reduction of $45 million and all this occurred in 10 weeks. In looking at the data, over 70% of the recommendations dealt with eliminating things that were started with good intention, later grew in size, became part of the culture, but now produced no vale. I'm not trying to be disrespectful, and am certainly not insensitive to employees losing their jobs, but what many leaders fail to realize is that employees, while feeling bad about layoffs, they also don't like to see their company doing stupid things because there's no no-risk way of identifying the problem.
Every company has these barnacles and most leaders would rather avoid the pain of pruning the base. Although not as glamorous as new product innovation, reverse innovation produces results substantially faster.
Innovation is bi-directional!

Identifying cDNA insert - Basic help needed (Feb/22/2009 )
I'm very new to this, so apologies for this basic level question.
I've performed 3 digests -1 with EcoRI, a double digest and a third digest using XmnI with three unknown cDNA inserts.
Having carried out electrophoresis and obtaining the nucleotide sequences for each insert, I now need to identify which sample is which.
The vector used is pGEM-T. I've inputted each sequence into a restriction webmapper to find the point(s) at which each restriction enzyme cuts. To calculate the theoretical size of each insert and in turn identify is which, would I need to subtract the value given at the 'cut site' from the total vector size then add the values from the webmapper in turn to see which corresponds to the band sizes on the gel? For example, the size of the vector is 3000bp, the restriction enzyme that cut each insert cuts the vector at value x and the cDNA at points y and/or z.
Would my calculation be: 3000-x+y then 3000-x+z and check which corresponds to the bands on my gel? Or should both y and z correspond to each of the 2 bands per sample?
Any advice is much appreciated -I've probably made this far more complicated than it actually is but it's my first time.
There is a much much easier way:
Sequence the insert using the standard primers (e.g. M13, Sp6/T7) for the plasmid and then run the sequence obtained through Genbank.
As suggested, i would sequence it.


text: Better All Around Because of Farrell's! 08/11/2016 Blog category: Testimonials I started my weight-loss journey in October of 2012. I was working an office job and had let my health and eating habits get way out of hand. At my heaviest I was 430 lbs. One day at work the left side of my face went numb and I began slurring my speech and having blurred vision. I went to the hospital and was informed that I had a mild stroke. At 30 years old with two kids this is not something that is supposed to happen. I threw away all the junk food and soda in my house, swore off fast food and joined a gym. I lost the first 140 pounds with walking, aquatic exercises and dieting. I had plateaued and knew I needed to do something extreme to reach my goal, so I joined Farrell's. Since beginning my weight-loss journey, I have lost a total of 235 lbs.The physical changes I see everyday, when I look in the mirror and don't recognize myself right away. I don't get sick as often as I used to and I have way more energy. The mental changes are even more significant. I can't even describe the confidence and self-esteem I have gained. All facets of my life are better since joining Farrell's. I have better relationships with people, better performance at work, a better home life and I constantly amaze myself by doing things I thought I never could. The "team" aspect of Farrell's and the accountability the coaches hold you to helps you to believe in yourself, which I never found at other gyms.Winning the 10-Week Challenge was one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. Getting my father-in-law and wife to follow in my footsteps and watching them both win the 10-Week Challenge as well was awesome. Every time I finish a class with a puddle bigger than anyone else or looking around the class and knowing that my bands are higher colors reminds of what I have done and what I still have to do. Farrell's helped me realize the difference between living and being alive. My advice for other members is to always make time to take care of yourself. Look at class schedules even at other locations and work it into your day. Put out more than you take in and if you're not dead, fainting or puking, keep going.

Problems with Atonement: The Origins Of, and Controversy About, the Atonement Doctrine
Liturgical Press, 2005 - 144 pagini
The origins of atonement are found in Paul's writings. Popular Christian theology has understood them to mean that God demanded a bloody victim to pay for human sin. In Problems with AtonementStephen Finlan examines the Christian doctrine of atonement and current debates about it. He considers its biblical foundation in Pauline texts, the Old Testament background, and the theological questions under discussion about atonement. He provides ancient historical background and raises questions, such as whether the Incarnation must be understood through the lens of atonement.
Chapters are Chapter 1: Sacrifice and Scapegoat," "Chapter 2: Paul's Use of Cultic Imagery," "Chapter 3: Atonement afterPaul," "Chapter 4: Rationalizing the Atonement Doctrine," and "Chapter 5: The Incarnation."
Stephen Finlan, PhD, is an adjunct professor of New Testament at Seton Hall University and Fordham University. He is the author of The Background and Content of Paul's Cultic Atonement Metaphors(Society of Biblical Culture, 2004)."

Shapewear for Women - In Search of Figure Eight
Is this topic too hush-hush for a blog? LOL...well it has been on my mind and I decided to share. I use shape wear for my slightly superflous tummy and especially when I intend to wear a figure hugging outfit. My body type is an apple, I think and once I add a bit of weight, it goes straight to my abdomen and back.
So in some particular clothes I need help to give a good silhoutte, you know, that much touted figure eight or coke bottle shape. I currently use two generic shape wear outfits and would like to get a discussion going with some of my blog readers on what they use, if they do of course, and their thoughts on shape wear.

January 4, 2010
Earlier today, the Daily Telegraph reported that a truck of explosives and weapons managed to slip past a surveillance operation in Sana'a, Yemen.
"The revelations came as western diplomatic missions in Sana'a went into lockdown following threats from al-Qaeda's Yemeni affiliate, which has taken responsibility for a failed attempt to blow up an airliner over Detroit on Christmas Day," the newspaper reported. "The identity of those who smuggled the weapons contingent into Sana'a has not been disclosed, and it is unclear if its disappearance is linked to al-Qaeda's increasingly powerful Yemeni branch, al-Qaeda in the Arab Peninsula."
|Yemeni guards stand outside the US embassy in Sanaa, one day after an attack on the embassy killed 19 people in September 2008.
"Diplomats dismissed speculation that the vanishing convoy could presage an imminent attack on Western interests in the city."
An attack on "Western interests" or an embassy or two would play right into the hands of the U.S. and Britain.
Gordon Brown has said he will convene a summit of world leaders on the Yemen problem at the end of this month.
In the United States the corporate media continues to beat the war drums and spread absurd hysteria about a supposed al-Qaeda faction in Yemen. We are expected to believe a rag-tag gang of terrorists in one of the world's poorest countries pose a threat to freedom-loving Americans the same way a sanctions-ravaged Iraq posed a threat after Saddam ganged up with Osama and al-Qaeda — one of the more colorful lies spun by the warmongering and Muslim-hating neocons.
Last October authorities in Yemen busted a terrorist cell accused of attacking the U.S. embassy the previous month. According to a reported filed with the state-run Saba news agency, the group had links to Israeli intelligence. "The report, quoting an unnamed source, said investigations and data retrieved from a computer seized from the cell, showed there was correspondence between the Islamic Jihad group's deputy leader Bassam Abdullah Fadhel Al-Haidari and an Israeli intelligence agency," the Indo-Asian News Service said.
The Islamic Jihad, reported to have links with the Al Qaeda, had claimed responsibility for the attack on the US embassy in Sana'a Sep 17, which had claimed 18 lives, including that of an Indian woman.
Saba quoted the source as saying that the correspondence between the two sides included a request from the Israeli side to implement terrorist attacks inside Yemen.
"An Israeli foreign ministry spokesman said the Yemeni president's statement was without foundation," the BBC reported. "To believe that Israel would create Islamist cells in Yemen is really far-fetched. This is yet another victory for the proponents of conspiracy theories," said Igal Palmor.
In fact, Israel has a long and sordid history of false flag attacks.
In 1950, a series of deadly attacks in Iraq were attributed to Israeli intelligence.
Four years later, Israeli false flag operatives exploded bombs in the British and American cultural centers and libraries in Cairo and blamed it on the Muslim Brotherhood.
Following the Six-Day War in 1967, Israel supported and encouraged Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and Hamas in order to counter the influence of a secular PLO. "Israel started Hamas. It was a project of Shin Bet, which had a feeling that they could use it to hem in the PLO," said Charles Freeman, a former US ambassador to Saudi Arabia. A former senior CIA official speaking to UPI described Israel's support for Hamas as "a direct attempt to divide and dilute support for a strong, secular PLO by using a competing religious alternative."
During the Six Day War, Israel attacked the USS Liberty and attempted to blame it on Egypt.
In the early 1970s, Israel teamed up with Jordan to support Muslim Brotherhood terrorism against Syria.
[efoods]In the 1980s, Israel conducted a bombing campaign in Europe to counter A. Q. Khan's nuclear proliferation network, which helped Pakistan build a nuclear weapon.
Oded Yinon's paper, "A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties," published in the winter of 1982 issue of Kivunim, suggested Arab States should be destroyed from within by exploiting their internal religious and ethnic tensions.
In September of 2000, India's largest news weekly reported that a Mossad attempt to infiltrate al-Qaeda failed when undercover agents were stopped on their way to Bangladesh by Indian customs officials.
A year later, the Army School of Advanced Military Studies in the United States said the following about Israeli intelligence: "Wildcard. Ruthless and cunning. Has capability to target US forces and make it look like a Palestinian/Arab act."
In 2005, US Intelligence officers reported that insurgents in Iraq used Beretta 02 pistols minus serial numbers. "Analysts suggest the lack of serial numbers indicates that the weapons were intended for intelligence operations or terrorist cells with substantial government backing. Analysts speculate that these guns are probably from either Mossad or the CIA. Analysts speculate that agent provocateurs may be using the untraceable weapons even as US authorities use insurgent attacks against civilians as evidence of the illegitimacy of the resistance," the UPI reported.
In 2002, officials from the Palestinian Authority accused Mossad of setting up a fake al-Qaeda terrorist cell in Gaza. Then Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat said that Israel had set up the mock cell in order to justify attacks in Palestinian areas, according to the BBC.
"Not one big success of the Mossad has ever been made public," Ephraim Halevy, head of the Mossad from 1998 to 2002, told 60 Minutes in 2003.
The U.S. also has a record of using and planning false flag attacks, most notably Operation Northwoods.
Andreas von Bülow, former German Minister for Research and Technology and a long-time member of German parliament, said in 2002 the attacks on September 11, 2001, were a false flag attack. "Whoever wants to understand the CIA's methods, has to deal with its main task of covert operations: Below the level of war, and outside international law, foreign states are to be influenced by inciting insurrections or terrorist attacks, usually combined with drugs and weapons trade, and money laundering," he told Tagesspiegal.
In addition to its long history of covertly overthrowing governments around the world, the CIA plotted false flag attacks in Europe to drive a wedge between Syria and Iran (according to CIA agent Robert Baer).
CIA operatives and patsies are legendary, as Webster Tarpley documents in his book, 9/11 Synthetic Terrorism: Made in USA. (Tarpley told Russia Today that the failed attack on a US passenger jet traveling from Amsterdam to Detroit was a set-up provocation controlled by US intelligence.)
If an embassy or other Western interests are bombed in the next few days in Yemen, a finger should be pointed at the CIA, Mossad, or both, not the rag-tag supposed al-Qaeda franchise operating in the country.
On January 3, the Yemeni Foreign Ministry declared the threat posed by al-Qaeda is "exaggerated" by the U.S.
Finally, it should be noted that al-Qaeda was established by the CIA in Yemen, as CIA contractor Billy Waugh admitted in his autobiography. "I worked right there with these al-Qaeda operatives," Waugh wrote in Hunting the Jackal with Tim Keown.

This is the wedding dress I made for an amazing gal named Rachel. Rachel was absolutely fantastic to work with... such a beautiful and classy young lady on the inside and out. I honestly loved every minute of making this dress!
I used ivory dupioni silk for the main dress with layers of English netting overlaying the skirt.
I also made the bridesmaid dresses below. Rachel was so nice to let the girls choose their own dress style, so each of them is unique. I think her color choice of blush and ivory are stunning and timeless... definitely something she can look back on 20 years from now and relish in her wise decision :)
Congratulations, Rachel!

Social scientists have long argued documentary films are powerful tools for social change.
But a University of Iowa (UI) sociologist and his co-researchers are the first to use the Internet and social media to systematically show how a documentary film reshaped public perception and ultimately led to municipal bans on hydraulic fracking.
When a devastating earthquake and tsunami hit japan in 2011, the effects were felt by over a million expatriates worldwide.
We propose a synthesis of two lines of sociological research on boundary spanning in cultural production and consumption. One, research on cultural omnivorousness, analyzes choice by heterogeneous audiences facing an array of crisp cultural offerings. The other, research on categories in markets, analyzes reactions by homogeneous audiences to objects that vary in the degree to which they conform to categorical codes. We develop a model of heterogeneous audiences evaluating objects that vary in typicality.
In recent years, several international-comparative studies have analyzed the relationship between migration and native populations' decreasing support for redistributive policies. However, these studies use cross-sectional designs and aggregate the number of foreign-born residents at the national level. Both aspects are theoretically and methodologically problematic. We address these shortcomings by investigating cross-sectional as well as longitudinal effects in the case of Germany, using a combination of individual- and regional-level data for several time points from 1994 to 2010.
Do police treat religious-based protest events differently than secular ones? Drawing on data from more than 15,000 protest events in the United States (1960 to 1995) and using quantitative methods, we find that law enforcement agents were less likely to show up at protests when general religious actors, actions, or organizations were present. Rather than reflecting privileged legitimacy, we find that this protective effect is explained by religious protesters' use of less threatening tactics at events.
Recent scholarship highlights the importance of public discourse for the mobilization and impact of social movements, but it neglects how cultural products may shift discourse and thereby influence mobilization and political outcomes. This study investigates how activism against hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") utilized cultural artifacts to influence public perceptions and effect change. A systematic analysis of Internet search data, social media postings, and newspaper articles allows us to identify how the documentary Gasland reshaped public discourse.
The article discusses alternative wedding ceremonies staged in urban spaces as a statement of protest among immigrant couples that cannot marry in rabbinical courts, because they are not recognized as Jews. These public weddings are organized and sponsored by the Fishka association of young Israeli adults of Russian origin.
In conversational storytelling, the recipients are expected to show affiliation with the emotional stance displayed by the storytellers. We investigated emotional arousal-related autonomic nervous system responses in tellers and recipients of conversational stories. The data consist of 20 recordings of 45- to 60-minute dyadic conversations between female university and polytechnic students. Conversations were videotaped and analyzed by means of conversation analysis (CA), with a special emphasis on the verbal and nonverbal displays of affiliation in storytelling.
To comply with ideals of multiculturalism and diversity, postsecondary institutions incorporate Latino students into distinct campus cultures. These cultures influence how students interact with one another, the university community at large, and communities outside of campus, ultimately shaping how students inhabit Latino politics. Drawing on data from 20 months of ethnographic fieldwork with six student organizations and 60 in-depth interviews, I compare Latino student organizations in a liberal arts college, a research university, and a regional public university.
In this article, I explore different forms of perceived threat posed by the presence of minority groups and how threat impacts residential segregation and neighborhood preferences. I extend previous research by exploring non-Hispanic white residents' preferences regarding black and Latino neighbors using qualitative data from in-depth interviews with white adults conducted in multiple neighborhoods in Buffalo, New York, and Ogden, Utah. My findings suggest that white residents perceive threat differently for blacks and Latinos.

The United Nations global report on youth highlights rising concerns over the lack of job propsect.
A lack of job opportunities, inadequate education, vulnerable working conditions and insufficient government investment are some of the main concerns of young people around the world, according to the UN's World Youth Report published yesterday.
In the aftermath of the economic crisis, the global youth unemployment rate saw its largest annual increase on record in 2009, resulting in around 75.8 million unemployed youth. "Today, we have the largest generation of young people the world has ever known," said United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki‑moon. "They are demanding their rights and a greater voice in economic and political life." He went on to declare: "We need to pull the United Nations system together like never before to support a new social contract of job-rich economic growth. Let us start with young people."
For the first time, inputs gathered from young people around the world through an extensive digital and social media consultation formed the core of the report, entitled "Youth Employment: Youth Perspectives on the Pursuit of Decent Work in Changing Times". For almost one month, young people from the ages of 15 to 30 took part in the consultation and a total of approximately 1,100 contributions (as well as photos and videos) were received from young people around the world during the four-week consultation period.
A main concern in the discussions was that current education systems are not preparing young people adequately to compete in the job market. Youth were especially worried that the education they received was overly theoretical, leaving them to acquire practical skills on their own. "Today it should be easier to find a job because our generation is the most educated but there is an inadequacy between the training offered and the needs of the labour market," said Amadou, a Senegalese 24-year-old who participated in the online consultations.
Many also expressed concern about their governments not doing enough to help them overcome unemployment, stressing that without a lack of opportunities, they cannot apply their skills.
The report is available in English, online at www.unworldyouthreport.org, where, for the first time, readers are invited to interact and share their reactions. A panel discussion on youth employment was held from 1:15 – 2:30 p.m. on 6 February at United Nations Headquarters to launch the report and examine the role of youth, Governments and the private sector in addressing youth employment challenges.
